Now I haven't worked on my site in years so if you see something on a link listed for sale please note it's NOT. Maybe again someday. First I'd like to share a link from First City Currency that gives an idea to rarity of some of these notes. [url]http://www.fstctycurr.com/295_info.html[/url] Take a look at the other contributors.
